Samsung Galaxy S4 vs. Sony Xperia Z: When worlds collide

31 March 2013
If you’ve been paying attention – and we know you have – there’s no way you couldn’t have noticed that for a good ten days or so we’ve all been on and on about two phones. Now, we’re about to make it three...

        Well for me both of the phones have they're pros and cons but it all depends on the user by the end of the day may it be a Sony or Samsung or HTC or etc etc but make no mistake that technology is advancing faster and faster everyday and because of this the smart phone lines are endless, for now the best smart phone is Samsung Galaxy S4 but then tomorrow it would be another smart phone thats going to bet it sooner or later as it goes nothing last is forever.

          The user votes say it best. Xperia Z is the top rated phone, while the SGS4 average votes is just poor. People are no longer fooled by Samsung's gimmicks.

              I've read a comment here saying that the Xperia Z is "sexy". What's sexy about a big-ass brick??? It's thicker, bigger, smaller-screened and quite boring in it's design. The only thing that might pass as sexy is the bulge in your pants that it creates and that's just sad... :)))

                Sony Xperia Z over Samsung S4- "Already available" =)))) Get real! Even the editors had a hard time finding stuff in favor of the Xperia Z. Let's be honest here, I'm a Nexus fan, but the S4 has NO competition! Even the S3 was great and revolutionary, but the S4 is truly a dream phone!

                          I had a S3 and I know this is between the S4 and Z.
                          All i can say is I love my Z the color display is easier on the eye. Its a really beautiful phone. I was waiting for the S4 but since the design looks the same as the S3 i said forget it. All the new stuff Samsung added is all software gimmick. All these "smartphone" user nowadays don't even use all the stuff that these phone are quip with. Sony FTW on this one.

                            XPERIA Z Great phone with horrible screen. Go and play with it before u buy. Screen is below par. Whites are horrible and blacks non existent. Backlight bleed is apparent at any screen settings. My last year motorola razr i has better definition than this thing. Got mine as a upgrade now i am stuck with it. Dont be as naive as i was or u will regret. Sony didnt learn anything. All this marketing woffle is misleading and pure evil. Dont belive anything u see in tv.

That does not give you the right to go around lying. Copies what? And seriously? They have only used Sony sensor in last two Galaxies...and they made it work better than Sony could do in their own phone.
                              Other than that Samsung has been the first to almost every other Mega pixel update to phones and is among the best if not best with each one. Rivaled Nokia for top way more than Sony ever could. They brought the first 12MP wich held top status for years and were there first to bring HD to phones. You don't see everyone saying Sony and everyone copied Samsung for using HD
                              And anything with Apple they are loosing cases against Samsung and many others. Even found to have stolen the names iphone and ipad
                              And the Z screen is washed out. S4 might be saturated but most prefer that and even lcd lovers would take amoled over a bad lcd. Plus you can adjust it while still having deep blacks and better in the sun.

                              Like what you like, but quit trolling
